The 27-inch screen has an anti-glare coating with LEDs that provide precise backlighting for every pixel. The screen also has two 2-watt built-in speakers for a little audio boost in stereo sound and 350 nits of brightness. The connectivity options include HDMI, DisplayPort, and Mini DisplayPort. It even comes with a five-foot DisplayPort cable. This is covered by a three-year warranty from ViewSonic.
